Poor deluded brothers; you may then wish
that you wore petficoats 50 that you could
call on the strong. big, brainy nen to de-
fend you. Those female suffrage
Legislators of Kansas deserve the
fate Of little John Bottleinhn

may get it. Let the suffrage Bo,tlejohDs
take the hand Of the suffrage mermaid and
plunge into the fosming main Of oblivion.
And then my boquet bought brothers. you

the politician. One woman who
helped 10 circulate the suffrage
petition boasts how that in one house when
a woman said she would no, sign the petit.
ton. for she did not wish 10 have ANYTHING
To do with women voting she (the petition
circulator) said then to the woman
of the house: This petition has
nothing 10 do with the question of
women voting: the petition is for the
closing OF saloons and stopping of whisky

Parsons Sun: When Kansas has as
many inhabitants to the square mile Of ter
titory as has Ohio, the state will have six
million people; when it is as thickly set
tied as England, it will contain thirty three
million people; when the people are as
thick in Kansas as they are in Belgium,
we viii have thirty-six million people in
our state. 1t will be a long time before
Kansas will be as densely populated as
Belgium, or even England, but there are
plenty of people living in Kansas today
who will see her praries covered by six
million happy, prosperous people.

Sioux Falls Press: "There is q tide
in the affairs of man which taken at the
food leads on to fortune The same may
be said of a city. Too many citizens Of
enterprising towns are apt to hang back
and preach conservatism. Ina certain
sense they become a drag rather than
a help in %furthering the best interests of
q growing city. The wait for other men
to succeed and then float in upon the tide
which lends the successful bark upon
the shore OF prosperity. The city OF
Sioux Falls is on the eve of a prosperous
season and there are q few, very few, of
her citizens to whom the foregoing
sentiments need be preached, Still every
discouragiEg word counts, and it should
be born in mind that nothing tends to
build up q community like unanimity OF
action. 1t profits a maa nothing to
retard his neighbor from making a sue
cess of any n thing. Let euch q man
rather invite something in his own mind
to better his situation, and thus help to
occupy the field more fully and take
advantage of the opportunities offered.
The present is undoubtedly q golden
opportunity for the city OF Sioux Falls.
We need more capital, more manufacto-
rles, more spirit, more good feeling be-.
